No, I did not try anything like that. But patchelf should not break any ELF, I
think, regardless of how is it prepared.

For another kind of work, I want to profile firefox with symbols, and I totally
fail although I add "--enable-profiling", "--disable-elf-hack", ... all appears
in 'perf' as without relevant symbols. I'll try this --disable-elf-dynstr-gc
too.

Thank you!
